Re: The Nakba series on Aljazeera
When I first began to read political science, the first book I managed to get hold of stated in the first paragraph, "If you can hold a piece of land, it is yours. If you cannot hold the piece of land, it is not yours."
This seemed to make sense to me, and I think it still holds true, in spite of the UN and International Law.
